Re: FT variations for Young People

     You may just try using the basic rules, and then decide which
optional 
     rules if any you guy's want to use, my son has had little problem
with
     the rules (less than some adults I play with). And actually prefers
to 
     use the fighter rules and other optional rules. He also whips me 
     regularly and is one of the more challenging opponents for FT/MT I 
     have had. Kids make excellent opponents if they can focus on the
game 
     as they are not out to prove they are Admirals, or naval experts.
They 
      just want to blow your fleet to space dust. And isn't that the way
it 
     is supposed to be?

Hi all,
     
I've been playing with FT, DSII , Ogre and other stuff, but only have my
11 year
     
old son to play with.  Pre-writting orders doesn't work. Measuring stuff
is not 
so clean so I've been using hex grids ( I know everyone here hates that
for 
miniatures, but it is 'simple'!).
     
Any one have 'young people' house rules that really work???? 
     
My son beats me with what we are doing, but it isn't that much fun for
me...
